I have two great doors but they have the vent windows which i don't want to use. what modifications do i need to do? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 2,232 Moderator: Interiors, Texas Bolters, Name that Part | | Moderator: Interiors, Texas Bolters, Name that Part Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 2,232 | Can I ask why you don’t want the vents? They are really nice in the Texas heat when you don’t have air conditioning.
I assume just take vents off, change the glass, new seals, etc. I don’t think it would be difficult.

Old enough to know better, too young to resist.
